You wont find a chrysler bobtail. A bobtail engine might still need a differant oil pan, exhaust manifolds and a carb.

If you change to a chevy would you not have to change the bell housing? Also with reverse rotation engine (chrysler ) does chevy make one? If these are orginal carbs they would be carters.

Went thru the same dilema several years ago. Went with rebuilding the chryslers.Rebuild what you have. Cheapest way to go. The 360 are 250 hp.I changed the cam to a higher profile. What a difference.

Here is what I have. A 1800 watt inverter, 4 T-105 Trojan 6 volt battery's and 2 - 85watt kyrocera solar panels. The batteries are strictly for the a\c fridge. The cost of the solar system equaled the cost of a portable Genny. Silent power. 8 years now

Used a light gray ( oil based ) porch paint and washed with super clean then TSP.
